Description
NOTE: I'll allow Ebay overseas shipping program only for international orders. I ship to a distribution location, and they handle from there -- and I believe it's fairly expensive. So check before hand.
This is a beast right here. A true, old school, beautiful beast of a record ... amazing.
See below for more detail:
VINYL: VG+ (8.5 of 10) Deep Groove, RVG Stamps, Bergenfield label, deep groove pressing. This vinyl is heavy ... feels like it's pushing 200g. Overall it's in fantastic shape. There's some super light paper scuffing, and a dull mark ... maybe one super light whisp mark? It's in pretty stellar shape ... fantastic vinyl.
COVER: VG+ (8.0 of 10) Also fantastic. There's a little laminate coming up at the opening edge, and a tear to the slick on the back, and the corners are a little soft. Otherwise, it's pretty stellar. Gloss is still beautiful,seams and sine are fine, and all the liner notes are there. Overall great. _______ Now the standard messages:
GRADING: Yes I use standard grading. HOWEVER, I will NEVER use the word "mint" or "near mint" to describe a used LP ... sorry, won't do it. The highest I go is VG+. I use a number after to more represent a combination of how the vinyl looks and how it sounds. 10 is the best. I'll describe what I see in addition. I've found the combination of these two can minimize expectation gaps. But ask questions when in doubt.
CLEANING: Yes. All vinyl is cleaned ... on my own machine I made. Vacuum machine. I wash and rinse with my own formula cleaners -- once with my enzyme cleaner, and rinsed with my own distilled water/alcohol formula. ... this process has worked for me for years.
TESTING: Yes. I've listened to the records I sell. I play on a Lenco L70, via Denon 103 MC cart; tube preamp, a Dynaco ST-70 all tube amp to KLH 17 speakers. An super tubey setup, right!?
SHIPPING: $4.99 for anywhere Media Mail, domestic. Overseas is BY WEIGHT, so check that weight before bidding, you overseas-ers! LPs shipped in a proper box with plastic sleeve, and yes, vinyl shipped outside the sleeve.
NOTE: Due to the pandemic, I'll be shipping via eBay international shipping program only.
RETURNS: Generally a no go, unless you have a compelling reason. But if there's a serious problem, I'm sure we can figure it out with a return. I mean, I am an adult ... allegedly. But I do try to describe accurately, offer time for questions, and I deal in used records, not new stuff ... yes, it's always kind of a gamble buying via eBay, which is why I try to do my best to make an objective attempt to describe the LP in question. ASK QUESTIONS WHEN IN DOUBT. I promise, we can make this an easy transaction
